Hey everyone!!! I started a new YouTube channel. My first video is an informational animation about quicksand for a scholarship and I'd love it if you'd check it out!

I might be posting some more storytime, college, and other science related videos....

Something I drew because I was bored and stressed of course. Be sure to take mental breaks when you need it!

Please do not get your news facts from Tumblr. If you read something that bothers you, go to multiple sources for more information. I just saw something ridiculously misleading and skewed, and unfortunately many people believed it and filled the notes with hate. Many users on here are spreading fear and misinformation just for the notes!!

Others may think they're sharing important news, but by not fact-checking something that's biased, they are furthering a lie and causing harm.

Fact-check before believing anything you see. Please.

Hey everyone! I really want to make stickers out of these random doodles I drew but of course printing stickers are expensive...

[f-is-for-fys1ks]

look…………….. write as much shitty fic as you want. nobody can stop you. you’re learning constantly and it’s better to write hackneyed implausible ridiculousness than it is to not write at all out of fear of fucking up. you’re good

decided to ditch my planner this month and go back to bullet journaling - it’s a type of creative outlet after all, and i’ve been needing some of it during quarantine ✨💗

studygram

[f-is-for-fys1ks]

Studying extra hard for ap chemistry! I didn't feel so good about the second part of my physics exam and probably didn't get any of the points at all but at this point I can only hope I got a score I want...

Anyway, what are some things you want to do after exams? I want to create a lofi soundtrack, workout more often (I've been following Pamela Reif's workouts), work on college apps, try out some recipes, write some letters to friends, make face masks, study up on the content that I missed.... So much to do!

Quick reminder,

This quarantine isn’t a productivity competition.

You do not have to:

- lose weight

- work out every day and get a 16 pack of abs

- cure acne

- master a new skill

- read 17 books

- change yourself in anyway

By saying you’re going to use this time to “glow up” is implying that you’re not already shining but bb you sure are.

It is ok to not lose 15 pounds and don’t beat yourself up if you gain a lil bit either. It’s natural, you’re at home and walks to the kitchen are pretty common.

It’s ok not to work out every day and get absolutely shredded. Sure get your exercise but don’t beat yourself up over not doing an intensive 30 day butt and ab workout. Who the flip cares!

It’s fine not to master a new skill. Sure find something to keep you occupied but you don’t need to master a whole new skill just because. Arts and stuff takes years to master don’t feel bad because you can’t get there in a week.

You do not need to change yourself in anyway. This is quarantine, our main goal is to survive. Don’t beat yourself up if you’re not solving world hunger or turning yourself into a model and certainty don’t beat anyone else up if they’re not.

This is Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, you can’t achieve Self Actualisation if have not achieved your psychological needs and you can’t get psychological without basic needs.

Pretty much, make sure your wellbeing is in top knick before you try to accomplish every goal you’ve ever set or ever will set.

Keep safe and much love,

Charlie xx
